Paul Travis Williams, 57, was called to his heavenly home on March 23, 2026. He was born in Valley, Alabama on November 29th, 1968, to the late Paul Bradley Williams, Junior and Linda Bassett Williams. Travis was a long-time resident of Hawkinsville and a 1987 graduate of Hawkinsville High School. He then earned his degree in graphic design from the University of Georgia. He continued his education and attended seminary at Regent College in Vancouver, British Columbia, where he made many lifelong friends.
Travis devoted his life to his God and to his family. He was a member of the Dahlonega United Methodist Church and was a good and faithful servant of the Methodist faith throughout his life. He was devoted to his family, and there was nothing more important to him than staying in touch with loved ones. Those who were close to Travis will miss his kind and generous nature. He will certainly be remembered for his ability to always make friends and family feel special and loved. While our memories of him will remain, his work and acts of kindness and faith toward his community and family will continue to inspire us.
Travis was an avid reader. History and astronomy are just a couple of his many interests. Travis was a natural artist and worked as an author and graphic designer with Siretona Creative in Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
Travis was preceded in death by his father Paul Bradley Williams Junior. He is survived and will be forever remembered by his loving mother Linda Bassett Williams and his sister Carley Williams Johnson, both of Hawkinsville, his nephew Julian Johnson and niece Athena Johnson, his Aunt Cathy (K K ) and Uncle Ricky Turner of Valley, Alabama, Aunt Tawanna and Uncle Ed Giles of Auburn, Alabama, and Uncle Randy Williams of Lagrange, Georgia and cousins, Ryan and Ginger Turner of Daphne, Alabama and Austin Williams of Denver, Colorado.
